MINI STAGE POCKET INSTALLATION GUIDE |
 |
 |
 |
STEP 1 |
 |
 |
 |
Locate each spot where the Mini pocket(s) will be installed in the carpeted floor or wood stage. Try and place the pocket between floor joists if possible. Lay the cutout for the Mini Stage Pocket as follows:
MINI STAGE POCKET CUTOUT SIZE: 2.88" x 5.50". Proceed to make the cutout in the floor or stage. Download the Mini Stage Pocket Cutout Template. |

|
|
STEP 2 |
|
|
|
Set the Mini pocket body with the trim bezel lid hinge assembly into the cutout. Secure the Mini pocket body and trim bezel lid hinge assembly to the floor by screwing the (4) #8 black coated (also brass or steel) self tapping sheet metal/wood screws provided into the floor. Note: To avoid the screws pulling runners in the carpet, try using a hot soldering iron to burn a screw hole in the carpet before driving the bezel screws into the floor.

STEP 3 |
|
|
|
After all work in Step 2 is complete and the open pocket body and trim bezel lid hinge assembly is secured to the floor you can easily complete the panel/connector installation and/or other terminations. The stage pocket installation is now complete! |

|
|
STEP 4 - INSTALL w/ #025BBX BACK BOX |
|
|
|
After all the work in Step 3 is complete, reinstall the springs and hinge pins into the Standard Lid (SL) and snap the lid assembly into the pocket body. Note: Once the carpet or standard lid is installed it cannot be removed without first removing the pocket body from the floor. |
|
|
|
STEP 5 |
|
|
|
When installing the Mini Stage Pocket with a #025BBX Back Box cut the carpet out using a sharp knife and save the piece to glue onto the lid. Note: Make sure to cut the carpet out using the INSIDE dimensions of the Full Stage Pocket Body. This allows the extra "carpet slack" to be sandwiched between the carpeted floor and the Stage Pocket Trim Bezel. Carpet the Recessed Carpet Lid (CL) by trimming and gluing the carpet piece (cutout earlier) onto the carpet lid using carpet contact cement (not provided). |

|
|
Set the pocket body with the hinge pin lid assembly removed into the cutout. Secure the pocket body to the floor by screwing the (8) #8 black (also brass or steel) coated self tapping sheet metal/wood screws provided into the floor. Note: To avoid the screws pulling runners in the carpet, try using a hot soldering iron to burn a screw hole in the carpet before driving the bezel screws into the floor. With the open pocket body secured to the floor you can easily complete the panel/connector installation and/or other terminations. |
